If you are planning for Breda budget travel, you may want to read the following tips. They will surely help you cut your expenses when in Breda and save a lot of money.

Choose the Right Time

Choosing the right time for visiting Breda will save you a good amount of unnecessary costs. The city is suitable for a visit throughout the whole year, but most tourists come in the period from June to August. The local hotels, and some of the local restaurants, use this to increase their prices and earn easy money. That’s why, when traveling on budget, visit Breda at any time of the year other than this.

Local Transportation

Unfortunately, there aren’t decent ways of saving money from inter-city transportation. However, once in Breda, you have the chance to cut your costs on local transportation. Use buses instead of taxis. The city public transport is maintained by the renowned company Veolia Transport. With their strippenkaarten, you can travel all around the city for as low as $0.60 (while for a taxi you have to pay over $2.5 per kilometer).

Budget Accommodations

You can cut up to 50 percent of your accommodation costs by staying at the Premiere Classe Hotel Breda. It is located in the outskirts of the city. It is true that a taxi to the center will cost you about $17, but even with the taxi expenses included, this hotel is much cheaper than any other hotel in Breda, as a double room costs only $50 per night (more than 2 times lower than in the majority of local hotels). The rooms are very basic, but still comfortable enough to have some rest after a long tiring day.

Affordable Restaurants

There are a good number of cheap restaurants in Breda, which is a lot due to the fact that Breda is a city full of students, who don’t have so much money to eat out. You can take advantage of that and visit these places, where you can eat spending less than $10. This includes places like the Ikea, Subway and Burger King fast-food branches, but also simple restaurants like Donatello’s and Come Back, offering a good selection of cooked meals.

Free Museum Visit

Among the many Breda museums, there is the Beer Advertising Museum. It has no admission fee, so you can visit it without worrying for your budget. It exhibits brewery machines, beer advertisements and beer labels dating from 1900 and up to present days.
